Trading X Vario and Q for CL


Recommended Posts

Thanks for that very detailed response.  I rented an M10 awhile back and was impressed with how much I could bring up the shadows and make some other adjustments.  I hope the CL produces similar files.  I never warmed to the Q.  The fixed wide lens just wasn't working for me.  I enjoyed the X Vario more except for having to use the lousy external EVF.  Both on are their way to Leica Store Miami for a trade.  Still haven't made any final decisions.

Update:

Thanks so much to everyone for encouraging me. Over the weekend, I bought a barely used CL from Miami Leica (I must have spotted it on line the moment they posted it because they never even got the details up). I talked with Josh there--very helpful--and it should arrive on Thursday. 

I'm completely besotted with my Q and will certainly keep it (or its eventual successor the Q7, with its 8 tps sensor producing 600 gigabyte files and roasting my coffee beans on demand). Initially, I'm using it with my legacy manual focusing Nikon glass until I get a sense of how it will complement the Q--with its 1/2 sensor, certainly that includes telephoto photography. It's really nice that the cameras share the same batteries.

again, thanks, and looking forward to sharing photos with everyone here!

I've placed an order to rent the CL with the 18-56 and 55-135 lenses.  I'm eager to try them out. 

....... and how did you get on ?

I really like the XV and Q and was reluctant to part with them ....... so I ended up with both CL and SL before I let them go. I'd be interested to hear whether you are sticking with them or moving on ......
